Angelina Jolie Does Charitable Work

Jolie and Pitt give $1 million gifts
Associated Press
WASHINGTON - Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are giving gifts of $1 million each to two humanitarian organizations, an adviser to the couple said Wednesday.

The recipients are Global Action for Children and Medecins sans Frontieres/Doctors Without Borders.

“In the most troubled parts of the world - places that much of the world has abandoned - MSF is always there,” said Jolie in a statement issued by Trevor Neilson, the couple’s philanthropic and political adviser. “I have seen these brave men and women working in war zones and horrific conditions and I deeply admire them.”

Jolie, who co-starred with Pitt in the 2005 film “Mr. & Mrs. Smith,” is a goodwill ambassador for the U.N. High Commission for Refugees.

Jennifer Delaney, U.S. director for Global Action for Children, expressed her thanks for the gift from the Jolie-Pitt Foundation.

“Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt not only care, but more important, are taking concrete action to address the fact that there will be 20 million children orphaned by AIDS by 2010, and millions more orphaned by tuberculosis, malaria and conflict or whose parents are sick and dying,” she said.

Delaney said the vast majority of these children are in the care of extended families and communities that need support to overcome the ravages of HIV/AIDS and poverty.

OMG. The whole family rocks. Seriously. Even if the haters most fondest fantasy came true and they broke up tomorrow (God forbid!) - they will have accomplished so much, and done so many good things in their time together. But, sorry haters - it ain’t happenin’ so forget about it. LOL

Er…Oops. My lips are sealed. Maybe someone else can reveal. Hee.

The newly formed Jolie/Pitt Foundation is giving away $ 2 million – $1 to the Global Action for Children and $1 million to Doctors Without Borders, to help families affected by HIV/AIDS and extreme poverty.

I did indeed notice that AG. Wheeeeee!! Their foundation, their kids, their love, what a UNION! Love them. Maniston should at this point be sitting back mouth agape, shaking her head in wonder and just recognizing that she was a fookin’ anvil around Bradley’s neck dragging him down and hog-tying him to the TV - he’s flying now with Angelina, literally and figuratively. God bless em’ both.

Hey does anyone recall when that tribute to George Clooney was going down? Has it happened already? Was Brad and Ange there??

True

*I* didn’t say it, Ted C said it! Hs impying that Angie and Brad
will break up sometime before Maddox is an adult, and Maddox’s
last name will be Jolie, not Jolie-Pitt. I was just saying predicting a
breakup is an easy thing to do. Of course Brad will still be his
father.

875 | err…

HOW ABOUT ANISTON-NORMAN???.

Corrections :”Donate money” “rebuilding”

646 | Ugly Feet - Perhaps where we are failing to communicate is the assumption that until Ms. Jolie came around the Pitt/Aniston union was a happy one. Most of us feel it was already dead, the “ceremony” just hadn’t happened yet. You seem to be assuming it was happy. Perhaps if you try to look from our view you will see why we are so happy for Brad.
